['I am an ESL teacher and one of my 3 year old students came to school singing an entire song all about the planets. It was so cute!', 'Awe, I bet you felt so proud and happy for them.', 'Yeah, it was a really special moment for me. Little kids that age are so cute!', "I know, they can be amazing when they are learning and exploring the world... however, I still don't think having a different colored cup than the one they wanted warrants the response they tend to give. ( I have a 2 year old and a 3 year old son)", 'Haha, I know that argument well. I teach some preschool/pre-k kids and they can definitely be a handful!']

I agree. I am still trying to figure out why they fight so much over Blippi and Peppa pig! They are both horrible, just pick one and get it over with. I will be miserable through both, lol
